    Blackwell - 7 Botanical Engravings

    Est: $500 - $1,500

    This engaging botanical engraving is from Elizabeth Blackwell's Herbarium Blackwellianum, Selectum sive Collectio Stirpium or Sammlung der Gewache. The work was published by Christoph Jacob Trew in Nuremberg between 1757 and 1773. The engravings were done by Nikolaus Freidrich Eisenberger for the revised and expanded German version of Blackwell's A Curious Herbal which was first published in 1737. Trew translated her Herbal into German and enhanced some of the descriptions. "This edition is artistically superior to Blackwell's Curious Herbal on which it is only partly based. The first 500 plates by N. F. Eisenberger, were copied from Blackwell's plates but are much more carefully drawn, engraved and coloured, and have alterations and additional material." (De Belder) Elizabeth Blackwell created her A Curious Herbal in order to raise money to free her husband from debtor's prison. She drew, engraved, and colored the illustrations herself with the support of Isaac Rand. She used speciments from the Chelsea Physic Garden. While she succeeded in releasing her husband from prison, Alexander absconded to Sweden and conned his way to the court physician to the King and eventually hanged for treason. Elizabeth, then a widow, was denied any profits from the enterprise when it published.
